> Traditionally the term referred to vehicles built on passenger car chassis and with the cargo tray integrated with the passenger body. However, present-day usage of the term "ute" in Australia and New Zealand has expanded to include any vehicle with an open cargo area at the rear; which would be called a pickup truck in other countries.
My first two vehicles were utes: Holden, of course (HJ '74 and HX '76).

- phillc73 7y agoBorn in the early 70s in Australia, there's something visceral about Holden V8s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMUx4DXDhA0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMUx4DXDhA0 And the Monaro GTS sedan on the HJ Wikipedia page is my idea of a family car. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_HJ#/media/File%3AHolden_Monaro_HJ_GTS_(15687382318).jpg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_HJ#/media/File%3AHold... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_HJ#/media/File%3AHolden_Monaro_HJ_GTS_(15874252932).jpg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_HJ#/media/File%3AHold...
